Danger: Rambles Ahead

I find myself spending hours on line chasing link after link on a topic that caught my interest. Tonight was no different, I've been on-line since 9 pm and am just now posting something to my blog. Most of the surfing I did tonight was for a couple graphics... and I saved dozens, but always want to improve them before using them. I have been procrastinating on posting, 'cause I'm still dithering about what I want to do with it. Today, I decided to use the new camera and take pictures of my screen prints on fabric to post, then discovered that the prints were terribly wrinkled, so I went to my mom's house to borrow her iron & board (I never iron my clothes, so don't have my own; mom is a seamstress & crafter...) then discovered it was my niece's last choir performance for the semester tonight, so went to that... Clearly, it's not just when I'm surfing that I wander without a plan :)

I've lived in Indiana all my life. I have a bachelor's degree in fine art. I'm a book lover, and I like movies, but I don't watch any cable tv. (I do miss CSI, tho) I completely avoid the news whenever possible. I have studied palm reading, virus hunting, urban legends, alternative medicine, and the role of the cat in mythology.I answer questions better than I volunteer information. I have a tendency to get all wrapped up in things and become antisocial. I am insatiably curious about dozens of things. I had six minors in college. I love to chase facts and information about topics that catch my imagination.I would love to go to Europe, Egypt, Greece, and Australia. Over the past few months, I've been hearing great things about New Zealand. I fantasize about living in the south of Italy as an expatriate american writer.I think Tom Robbins was right when he said "Smell is 80% of love". I tend to quote a lot.

About Me

I admire creativity, curiosity, and confidence. I am the patron saint of Hopeless-but-Not-Stupid Causes. I think people should be nicer to each other in a very general, day-to-day sense.
My friends have described me as crass, a non-offensive singer, original, and too easy to get along with. I have a lot of darkroom experience in Photography that I am trying to translate into the digital realm. I love to read books. I like to be around people who are passionate about things.
